For now, I recommend using Zotfile with Zotero. Zotfile has a "Send to Tablet" feature to send PDFs to a cloud storage folder, which you can sync with your iPad.

ZotFile comes in mainly as you add new items to Zotero. By default, it will store those in its data directory. ZotFile can automatically convert them and turn them into linked files in a custom locati

- I don't know how to use Zotfile, despite how many times it's mentioned as being useful. For what? It does a lot of things and none of them seem to apply to Linked Files.

-the search bar no longer searches my annotations unless they have been extracted to notes in Zotero using Zotfile. (These annotations are indexed in the PDF file and have previously shown up in searc

Do I need zotfile for that?

I am currently using zotfile to help organise my pdfs and doc files with cloud storage and it is working great.

I also have Zotpick and Zotfile installed, don't know if that matters. And I'm working on MacOS Catalina.

I have downloaded the zotfile and when in zoetero, I click on to tools->Add-ons I don't see any window pop up. Has anyone faced a similar issue ?

I think you are right that the caption is mixed up. The correct technical terms should be "page" and "page label" (see here). To add to the confusion, there are also "named destinations" which Acrobat

I found the text in your message in this file. Extracting highlights with Zotfile works well for me. It could also be an issue with your highlighting tool. You could try if you get better results with

And maybe I’ll see about getting zotfile to change its settings to reflect the support reality you mention.

You can edit the format by setting the 'extensions.zotfile.pdfExtraction.formatAnnotationNote' preference. Open Zotero Preferences, click "Advanced", then "Config Editor". Dismiss the warning screen i
